So this book was unlike any book I've ever read before. It is definitely out of my normal genre of reading and wouldn't have been anything I would have picked up on my own. But it's part of the dragonlance series that my boyfriend Rick just loves. So we made this little deal that I'd give on of his books a try and he would give one of mine a try as well. (I'm still trying to decide what book of mine I'll have him read).
So this book was very much fantasy. Kind of had the whole Lord of the Rings type thing going (never read those books-- but I did *love* the movie). And actually it did remind me a bit of Eragon, which I really enjoyed too. It had everything a good fantasy book should have. It had a lot of action, a good plot line as they struggled to combat dark and evil forces, and of course love and honor. I really, really enjoyed it. Initally I found myself trying to read it so that I could finish it... but just a few chapters into it and I was hooked. I wanted to know what was going to happen next. Which is always a sign of a good book.
It was a nice break from the typical stuff I tend to go towards in choosing my books. However it is part of a very large series of books, and as I told Rick I just love reading too much to be able to committ myself to a large series of books. As it is I still have to finish the Eragon series, as well as the Left Behind Series.
Haha... which is funny actually, because the next book I plan on reading is Twilight... which is also a series. LOL
